What some of our children view on you tube ( something I wanted to document )

I am a real positive mum when it comes to the internet as I do think it has great things on there to learn . My son who is 15 and nearly 16 is an avid fan of  explorers that get permission to explore places. He is a keen gamer and most of all loves fantasy , history and especially science.caleb watches a lot of you tube but learns about places and good and interesting things.  This week even though I shouldn’t be shocked 😮 I was shocked to the core. A young you tuber by the name of Logan Paul went to the sea of Trees which we know as the famous suicide forest . I would  like to mention the young chap in question was also famous with a big part of that fan base being children.  and youngster influenced by this chap Logan Paul . After the many pranks they play which sometimes involve a high risk he managed to go to the suicide forest and then openly filmed a a suicide victim who had taken his life . I am lucky my son is not a Logan Paul follower which p,eases me . I think however there maybe other mums out there who’s sons anour daughters watch this content. I think 💭 there need to be a system where you tube take down content that isn’t appropriate or is marked as a certain age . I think we are in a world of very heavy demands on our children to fit in or take a stance and follow there own ♥️ hearts ♥️. However in this case I’m shocked at the ignorance of the young man and his band of friends were so disrespectful especially in a country in which respect is the highly learnt from a young age. To go to explore somewhere in a way to document the seriousness of suicide in Japan i think is much more acceptable. To look in a forest and film a body up close and mock a person who ended there life is far from acceptable. I feel they had a strong disrespect of human life and no morals and much more . Parents be aware of some of the content that can scar youngsters and at least engage 2ith your teenager or younger child about what they like to watch so you get to see the type of content they watch.its not spying it’s about what is morally right for our kids whether there 7 or 16 as children and youngsters are impressionable. We need them to be looking and watching influencers that share positive messages or something they are learning.

After breast Cancer /what we were like and now

What we looked like 2 years ago  Post -Cancer Blues  The one thing i wasn't prepared for was Post Cancer Blues !!! I  really thought i dealt with the whole situation very well i hardly cried throughout the cancer progress and chemotherapy . Then the brick wall came with full force when all of my treatments stopped . I cannot tell you how many times i cried in a day because it was so many times .I wasn't prepared to have a complete melt down. Please prepare yourself for the possible onslaught of this . I thought i would be absolutely fine and ready to up and go again . I  was so far from the absolute truth . I thought in my mind that i would feel relief but in honesty i think i was struggling knowing what i had just been through . I felt lucky to still be alive but i couldn't get into doing anything i may of done before . i struggled picking up the phone , writing letters , functioning at good pace. every day was a fight with myself .  I felt vul...

Build day 2 of the second week

Today has been focussed around putting handles on the doors and finishing over boarding the ceilings and building and area for a window. Everything is still in chaos as for us being a family. It's like being in a bedsit and I can sure know what that is like. I've been there done that and have the t shirt. The dust is still settling every day and its surprising how much we find and where. Overall my day has been pretty difficult with seizures and difficulty with speech but I have tried my hardest which is all the matters and I have been positive even though my day was somewhat tricky. Jay has been great always and the hero of the hour especially with me throughout the day. Supplying me with tea coffee and lunch.  Jay normally and pops into town to shop and stock up on needed groceries for the day . Jay has walked ditty like he does every morning otherwise she stares jay in the eye and you can feel the stare lol .Ditty although a tiny pug has an intimidating stare lol and she is...

Today has been a tough day

Today has been a day of lots of sleep as I need to be positive tomorrow as I have slept so much . I need an early night due to my condition and pacing myself is a need and a must . I’m happy to say we have a happy 15 year old who has already been out on his bmx with his friend and his younger sister and her boyfriend Kieran got him destiny 2 . As additional gift before Christmas Caleb has wanted Netflix to watch programmes on there and before Christmas he had the new need for speed payback which he is already happy with. Already he has said it’s already like we have had Christmas . Normally there is a stack of gifts 🎁 under the Christmas 🎄 tree but this year it’s more about content rather than how many . Luckily our son is aware of how others struggle but never expects lots even though over the years the tree has been full .Like most most 15 year olds he loves playing the Xbox one and loves to be on his games and music  . Over years the tree is overflowing with gifts  whe...
